It gives me hope for the future of beehaw refederating with that instance. They host some interesting communities. To be clear, I fully support beehaw defederating, it’s just heartwarming to see instance admins do things that move things forward

    There’s been a vote up in their agora community for over a week now about defederating from the nazi instance. Administrators have done nothing. Not a good look in my opinion

      I’ve messaged TheDude about that, asking him to consider making a statement about the situation. It’s apparently on his ToDo list, he didn’t anticipate the controversy taking place in that post, and the team and himself are still pondering what’s the best course of action (skimming through the comments manually, re-voting…)

      If I’m a bit disillusioned by the community, I still want to believe in his good faith. He seems like a guy who launched a little hobby project on his free time, expecting a few dozen people to join, and is now overwhelmed by having to handle one of the biggest Lemmy instances.
